To add DHTMLX Layout into an application, you need to take the following simple steps:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>How to start with DHTMLX Layout</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="../../codebase/suite.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="../../codebase/suite.css">
</head>
<body>
<div id="layout_container"></div>
<script>
const layout = new dhx.Layout("layout_container", {
cols: [
{ header: "Column 1" },
{ header: "Column 2", cols: [
{ header:"Left cols"},
{ header:"Center cols",cols: [
{ header: "Sub Block Header cols 1" },
{ header: "Sub Block Header cols 2" },
{ header: "Sub Block Header cols 3" }]
}]
}
]
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
Include source filesâ
Unpack the downloaded package into a folder of your project.
After that, create an HTML file and place full paths to JS and CSS files of the DHTMLX Suite library into the header of the file. The files are:
<script type="text/javascript" src="../../codebase/suite.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="../../codebase/suite.css">
Create a containerâ
Add a container for the Layout and give it an id, e.g. "layout_container":
<div id="layout_container"></div>
Define Layout structureâ
Layout consists of a set of cells arranged either into rows or into columns. The structure of a layout can be rather complex, since there can also be nested rows and columns.
For example, you can create a three-level layout structure:
const cols = [
{
header: "Sub Block Header row"
},
{
header: "Sub Block Header row",
cols: [
{
header:"Left cols"
},
{
header:"Center cols",
cols: [
{ header: "Sub Block Header cols 1" },
{ header: "Sub Block Header cols 2" },
{ header: "Sub Block Header cols 3" }
]
},
{
header:"Right"
}
]
},
{ header: "Sub Block Header" },
{ header: "Sub Block Header" }
]
Initialize Layoutâ
Initialize Layout with the dhx.Layout
object constructor. The constructor takes two parameters:
const layout = new dhx.Layout("layout_container", {cols});
Configuration propertiesâ Layout objectâ
The properties of the configuration object of Layout allow you to define the structure of Layout.
See the list of Layout properties here.
Cell objectâThere is also a set of properties you can specify for a Layout cell to configure it according to your needs.
You will find the detailed information on configuration options of the cell object in the Layout API overview article.
